BAN vs WI Betting Tips
Shai Hope to score Over 20.5 runs
Shai Hope is the leading run-scorer for the West Indies in 2025 and has an average of over 48 runs in 17 innings. He has scored at least 21 runs in 7 of his last 12 innings, including 2 half-centuries and a century. He has scored at least 21 runs in each of his four appearances against Bangladesh, and we are backing him to play a good knock here.
West Indies total runs before fall of 1st wicket Over 19.5
Alick Athanaze and Brandon King are both quality batsmen at the top of the order and are in good form of late. They gave the team a solid start in the previous match, and we expect them to do the same in this game as well.

BAN vs WI Team Previews
Bangladesh
After winning the ODI series earlier in this tour, Bangladesh would have hoped for a similar start in the shortest format as well. However, the batting line-up crumbled against the opposition’s strong pace attack, and they will now have to play catch-up.
The opening pair of Tanzid Hasan and Saif Hassan struggled against the new ball and were dismissed cheaply, exposing the middle order. The middle order is quite experienced with the presence of Towhid Hridoy, Litton Das, Nurul Hasan, and Shamim Hossain. However, the team appears to be somewhat lacking in depth in the batting lineup.
If the top four batsmen are dismissed early, there is very little support from the lower order. Bangladesh does have Mahedi Hasan in its squad, and it remains to be seen if he gets included in the playing XI.
Bangladesh will rely on its strong pace attack consisting of Mustafizur Rahman, Taskin Ahmed, and Tanzim Hasan Sakib to pick up early wickets. Nasum Ahmed and Rishad Hossain continue to lead the spin department.
Bangladesh Expected Playing 11
Litton Das (C & WK), Tanzid Hasan, Saif Hassan, Towhid Hridoy, Nurul Hasan, Shamim Hossain, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Nasum Ahmed

West Indies
After a disappointing last few matches, the West Indies couldn’t have hoped for a better start for this T20 series as they registered a clinical win. With the T20 World Cup just around the corner, the visitors will hope to make the most of the last two games to test their strength.
The top order, except for Sherfane Rutherford, was in excellent form, making meaningful contributions and helping the team set a good target. Alick Athanaze and Brandon King gave the team a steady start and will hope to do the same in this match as well. However, it was skipper Shai Hope and Rovman Powell who gave the team a late flourish with their explosive batting to take the team to a big total.
Powell was in especially good form as he slammed three maximums in the final over. He will undoubtedly play an important role in this match. In addition, the West Indies has plenty of depth in its batting thanks to all-rounders like Romario Shepherd, Roston Chase, and Jason Holder.
The bowlers, particularly the seamers, bowled well in the previous match and were one of the main reasons for the team’s victory. Jayden Seales and Jason Holder will likely continue leading the pace department, while Khary Pierre and Akeal Hosein will feature in the spin department.
West Indies Expected Playing 11
Alick Athanaze, Brandon King, Shai Hope (C & WK), Rovman Powell, Sherfane Rutherford, Romario Shepherd, Roston Chase, Jason Holder, Jayden Seales, Khary Pierre, Akeal Hosein
BAN vs WI Toss Prediction
The team winning the toss will likely opt to bat first.
Pitch Report and Weather Conditions
The pitch at Chattogram is likely to be on the dry side, but it has some grass on the surface. The grass will help the surface stay together. The quicker bowlers will be able to extract some movement off the seam when the ball is new. However, once the batsmen settle down, playing will get easier.
The pitch does slow down a bit in the second half, and the spinners can expect some turn. Anything over 170 will be tricky to chase. The weather will remain warm and humid with temperatures around 30 degrees.
BAN vs WI: Who Will Win?
Both teams are pretty evenly matched, and there is very little separating them at the moment. However, we feel that the West Indies has a slight edge in this contest thanks to a stronger and deeper batting line-up and a well-balanced bowling unit.
Bet on West Indies to win.
BAN vs WI win percentage stands at 58% in favor of WI.
